Video Preview: Nella Tempesta

The Italian company Motus returns to La MaMa with NELLA TEMPESTA, the third and final production of La MaMa's TEMPEST 3 series. Nella Tempesta creates a short circuit between Shakespeare’s The Tempest and Une Tempête by Aimé Césaire. Reflecting on the turmoil in our society and the consequences of the economic crisis, the performance also speaks about storms in the Mediterranean Sea, which are sinking the migrants ships that set sail from the coast of North Africa to reach Europe—“Brave new world,” to quote Miranda and Aldous Huxley. This version of The Tempest imagines the
play about a world not as it appears to be ending, but a world on the verge of a new beginning.
